I am Ironman
As some of you may already know, I am competing in Ironman Wales this year (http://ironmanwales.com/) which is a triathlon consisting of a 3.9km swim, 180km cycle, and a 42km run. I am doing this semi properly, looking at an 11 hour completion time.
Despite this, I kinda want to pay homage to this game in my clothing, or such, any ideas? |

Take a screenie of you destroying a base or something, blow it up, and print it on a shirt. Not sure what else you could do, unless there's an Alti store I don't know about.
Good luck to you though. That's quite the challenge! |

Sites like Vistaprint and Printerpix produce custom shirts and banners that could feature any number of Altitude related images.
I would guess that if we took a vote, for the most iconic object of Altitude, it would probably be the Loopy. But there is always the image of the chick in a plane, in the header of the Altitude Wiki... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Altitude_(video_game) |

thing is, I can't really wear a custom made t-shirt, I need wicking clothes (gets rid of sweat and water), I was thinking of drawing or writing something on my actual tops in sharpie.
Would probably do this for the cycle as I will have a jersey ontop of my trisuit which actually has more space for writing XD I was already thinking of writing - "Don't drown" on my wetsuit (somewhere) "Don't crash" on my cycle jersey "Don't trip" on the trisuit for when I run And no, no hashtags, I am not that much of a douche!! Why a triangle?!? |

I'll be rooting for you! And as for the Altitude-related stuff, simply write "no worries" or "hakuna matata" somewhere

Stanky, congratulations mate! I really want to give it a try as well, but at the moment, I'm really young. I'm madly in love with professional cycling and running, but swimming, not so much. Once again, congratulations!
